Journal of Mining and Environment is an international peer review journal in the field of mining and relevant environmental issues and aims to publish original papers, review articles, technical reports and short communications that are expected to be interesting for mining engineers, scientists, geologists and environmental groups that are not published or not being considered for publication elsewhere. JME appears four times every year. JME offers:
- Publication within a short period after acceptance
- On-line publication in advance of the printed journal
- One journal copy with 5 offprints will be sent to the corresponding author
The main aspects of research areas include:
- Environment (Mine environmental geochemistry, biotechnology, environmental pollution control and remediation technology, transport and fate of pollutants in the environment, environmental problems associated with mining and mineral processing activities, acid mine drainage, environmental aspects of mining operations, tailings and waste dumps management, reclamation)
- Mine exploration (geophysics, geochemistry, GIS and remote-sensing, economic geology, geotechnics)
- Mine exploitation (mining methods, blasting, transportation, ventilation, mine design and planning, rock mechanics, tunneling)
- Hydrogeology (hydrogeology of surface and underground mining, mine water, dewatering and rebound)
- Mineral processing (general, hydrometallurgy (leaching, SX, IX), flotation)
